a meander: a single, undivided path and no choices to make other than traveling onward through the winding pattern to an assured goal. The meandering pattern may tease the traveler by leading now inward, then suddenly outward, but eventually it arrives surely at the goal.

Imagine a labyrinth with one singular path, going in one direction, leading to the center. The center is who you want to be and what you want to achieve, be it wealth, knowledge, love, peace, etc. The way the labyrinth is set up is such that you may suddenly find yourself far into the periphery, away from your center, but with a few more steps it may lead you so close to the center you can almost reach out and touch it. The challenge is to remember, regardless of the path life leads you on - no matter the snakes and curves or how one minute your center is within reach and the next it feels unattainable - you are in fact headed towards the center and to have faith that you are doing what needs to be done to get there. In other words, you are exactly where you need to be. Take a deep breath and look around you. There is so much to be grateful for and you have come so far.
